Exactly where is UAV visible?

Ok never use UAV and have a free one on Mideast map.

So does it just get spotted if over sight range units/troops or can opponent see UAV just being in its country (ie over an empty providence) ?

it's not stealth
so its visible like any other aircraft

well that defeats purpose of a uav doesnt it. might not declare war but if you fly one into my country its war :evil:

Figure out when ppl are sleeping. I join my games late at night so when i'm up and ready ppl would have to go to bed usually. Also unless ur fighting russia there's no reason to have the uav up for too long just scout 1 city u need to attack and go

Really. How is it working, like when it is dark outside it must be night everywhere
It's the same night in China, Russia, EU, US... No time differences?
When it is time for bed it is time for bed for all of us

UAV should be unknown aircraft regarding owner and base airfield should not be visible.
But I suppose it is the old code that is problematic

UAV gets stealth at Tier 3, also it is pretty small, so people might not spot them.

they are so small that some players don't spot them. since it doesn't ignite act of war, players are too busy focused at front line that they don't see a uav in their back door. I've used quite a few. I find it very helpful.

They’re also good at mid-war surveillance, since it doesn’t matter if you can see them since you’re at war anyways. Of course, you must have air superiority.

You can use them to test an enemy stack to see if it has SAM's

That too.

once you get stealth for UAV, you can pretty much see the entire map without any problems

Only issue is you they individually have a small range of coverage compared to radar. But yeah you get the benefit of stealth and revealing exact stack composition - It just requires more effort
